Warm possibilities
There is something about the sun that is irresistible to me. I can't help but feel giddy and excited every time the month of May rolls around. Warm weather brings out happiness in me. And brings back so many memories too.
Like sitting out on my high school lawn with all my friends as soon as the thermometer read anything past 10 Celsius. Playing with my gang of neighbourhood childhood friends outside until the streetlights went on. (come on, I can't be the only one whose parent gave them that rule). Walking around different parking lots of numerous cities sunburnt and exaughsted but so freaking happy after seeing Grateful Dead concert after Grateful Dead concert. Sitting for endless hours on patios with my drink of choice and friends I met while travelling around the world when I was in my early twenties. Cottage porches with family. My sister's wedding on a beach in Alberta, and yes there are beaches in Alberta... Trips to the Caribbean, and so many more memories.
With all the positive experiences I have had in warm weather it is no wonder that I welcome the warm weather and all the new and memories it can bring with it every year. I look forward to this year's possibilities....

Had the same streetlight rule as a child...and before that we lived in the countryside of Maine where no streetlights were around...so we had to be in by the time the fireflies came out. I LOVED those fireflies.
